"Grunka, Lunka Dunkady Darmed guard- SHUT THE HELL UP!"

So, this entire weekend I've been sick with post nasal drip, making my throat kill, my nose be constantly congested, and my head throbbing. I started feeling this way on Thursday night before seeing Up, which is a fantastic movie. Then it got real bad on Friday, so bad that my bosses let me go home early. I was feeling a little better yesterday but the doctor suggested that I stay home and rest. There was just one problem, I had to work at Gamestop that night. Now, I rarely ask for time off ot call out sick on short notice. In fact, the only other time I did was the night before Halo 3 released. And, combined with the fact that I used to take shifts for everyone at the store, so someone should be able to take my shift. WRONG! No one was willing to take my shift so I had to drag myself into work for 5 and a half hours when I felt like shit, and in fact felt worse as the night went on because I wasn't resting. Well, they can kiss any chances of my covering for them again goodbye. I think the worst part about it was the guy I was working with had been sick too and wasn't given the tme off he needed. Well, that's what I get for working at a job that hires people who just don't give a crap.

Anyway, in other news, I came across another article that just makes me hope the guy involved gets in a lot of trouble. My girlfriend had mentioned before that Funimation was going to start a simulcast with One Piece starting with the newest epsiodes 403. The idea was that the episode would go up on their site about a hour or so after the ep aired in Japan. Now, as a One Piece lover and anime enthusiast, I was excited because 1) this would make watching One Piece a lot easier and 2)If this was a hit, it would be a good launching point for anime in general. I think there may be a official site similar for Naruto but I'd rather read the manga since the anime's fillers are just downers. Anyhow, getting of track here. Apparantly, a hacker went onto the website and essentially stole the material and put it up on another website. Because of this, Toei isn't allowing the US or Canada to simulcast it for quite some time. So, thanks to an asshat, he's essentially screwed Funimation and One Piece fans over big time. I just honestly hope it was worth it to him as once they find out who it is, he's gonna have his ass in the fire.
